Just saying out of all of the numbers we could be up by it had to be 18 not 17 or 19 but 18.

We honestly really do over-match nearly all aspects against the Celtics... it'll be even easier when Lee returns
Hedo locks down Pierce
Rashard owns Davis and Scala
Pietrus, JJ, and Lee can handle Ray, Eddie, Tony, etc...
Rafer can maintain Rondo
..AJ sucks, can't do anything lol

Is Barkley on the Magic bandwagon, or is it just because we have the big lead?

Gotta keep the defensive intensity and the good ball movement to win this one.

He said before that Celtics "don't have a chance" against Orlando.

Too bad our season was over after Game 3 last round. We're missing all this fun now.

Well as long as we keep the defensive intensity and get some turnovers we should keep a good distance because we do know that they will eventually start making a run.

He really said it.
I thought I was hearing things.
he said it the past two broadcasts as well
he stated orlando will defeat the celtics and be in the ECF... so he's been consistent the past few weeks... but i remember in the past, he said we didn't have what it takes to go all the way
but yeah, he's totally on the magic bandwagon

I think we have about a 99.999% chance of winning if we get Pierce in foul trouble in the 2nd half.

Re: Round 2 Game 1:Magic @ Celtics May 4 at 8pm ET on TNT
That's Magic basketball, finally.
Great defensive effort and awesome ball moving on the offense.
14 assists and only 3 TOs.
I hope they remember the way to play throughout the series.

Well if I had to guess I am assuming that when he said we don't have what it takes to go all the way kg was playing which would make this series much harder than it is already going to be.

it's just a half of basketball in a long series. When we win four than I'll celebrate. They are the defending champs.

Don't write off the other guys. I agree that limiting PP is the best way to ensure a victory, but any number of players on the Celtics could light us up at any given time. Even without KG. They're the defending champs for a reason.

It will take a 35+ points half from Pierce + Allen for them to come back
